Registration Opens Now for Fall High Point Market, October 26-30

Trade show organizer recommends to register early and begin travel planning.

8/6/2024
HIGH POINT, N.C.– As the official organizer of the world’s largest furnishings trade show, High Point Market Authority (HPMA) opens online registration for the Fall edition of its biannual trade-only event, scheduled for October 26-30.

Registration to attend High Point Market is available to U.S. and international buyers, including retailers, residential and commercial interior designers; press, industry professionals, exhibitor personnel and students.

Qualifying registrants will be issued a Market pass, which is required for entry into buildings and showrooms across the 13-block Market District. Guests who register prior to October 11 (or September 27 for international attendees), will receive their Market pass in the mail at no charge. Registration assistance is available by contacting the High Point Market Authority directly at (336) 869-1000 during normal business hours (ET), or by emailing registration@highpointmarket.org.

Online registration for Fall Market will remain open until 5pm ET on October 23, also at no charge. After this date, guests will register onsite during the event and pay a $30 processing fee.

Market guests are encouraged to register early, and to contact the HPMA-sanctioned Market Concierge service by Travel Quest, Inc., to receive assistance for booking overnight accommodations and flights, and to make other long-distance transportation arrangements.

“Planning ahead is a great start to optimizing your Market experience,” says Tammy Covington Nagem, HPMA president and CEO. “I always encourage guests to take advantage of our complimentary concierge service so they can secure the best options for accommodations and flights.”

Additional preparations are recommended prior to traveling, such as setting showroom appointments directly with exhibitors and populating a personalized MyMarket schedule using the official High Point Market App. Developed by HPMA, the user-friendly app is downloadable on iOS and Android devices, as well as to desktop computers.

In August, the High Point Market website event calendar will begin listing all marketwide educational programming and networking events, including this season’s entertainment headliners at Center Stage. Event details will auto-populate in the customized MyMarket schedule when selected directly from the High Point Market App.

Guided showroom tours are offered by HPMA to first-time buyers. To reserve a tour spot, visit the High Point Market website.

“Attending High Point Market is an invaluable way to grow your business,” adds Nagem. “The Market offers lifetime connections, inspiring displays with the latest furnishing trends and the opportunity to meet industry experts sharing game-changing business insights.”
